Answer: If their Mommy's watching, I'll fart around and let it go to three rounds ;-) And I'll also make it a point to play Scorpion, to show her what her kid's idea of entertainment is. *THWUNK* (double ;-) Seriously though. I hate that, too. It has the guilty feeling of taking candy/$0.25/$0.50 from a baby. I might try to teach them how to play, but that timer's running down, and it's no fun for me. :^( Gary Parnes /============================================================================\ | "You're obviously misinformed.
